  Smoky Mountain Meadows Campground

  Nice spot

  Tent camped here in April while mountain biking at Tsali. Campground at Tsali had not opened and this was a great plan B. Camped along the creek, all the spots had a fire pit and table. Bath house was clean and in good shape. There is also a separate section with RV hook ups and small cabins / huts for rent. Helpful and friendly host, also have a good selection of basic sundries in the office. And free WiFi near the office. Would stay here again for sure.

  Pigeon Forge Landing RV Resort

  Close to everything

  Beautiful brand new rv resort. Full hook ups, full amenities. In the middle of the fun and minutes from driving the scenic mountains.

  Volunteer Park Family Campground

  Decent amenities, but narrow RV spaces

  Pool, playground, grounds are nice and nicely shaded. The kids love the pool and even the 1 foot kiddie pool. Office is also a store with lots of necessities. Only negative comment is the long term side of the park and then that the RV spaces are narrow in between the trees and other spots. Spots have full hookups, or you can select the water/electric only.

  Anchor Down RV Resort

  Magical

  Beautiful property with fantastic views of Lake Douglas. Cleanest RV park we have ever visited and the staff was top notch.

  Sites are level with easy to reach hookups. We splurged on a premium site, but all the sites have a great view.

  We highly recommend this RV resort and we look forward to returning in 2022.

  Honeysuckle Meadows

  An affordable RV park/campground near the Smokies

  The Pros: 

  • Location: This campground is located in a perfect spot, in my opinion. 10 minutes from the Metcalf Bottom entrance to Smoky Mtn NP. 15 minutes to the Townsend entrance. 30 minutes to Cades Cove. 15 minutes to Pigeon Forge. And 30 minutes to Gatlinburg. Close, but away from the madness. For a few shops and restaurants you have Wears Valley right next door (I recommend Mountain Chick for a light breakfast - awesome biscuits and coffee).
  • Amenities: full hook-ups and a VERY nice pool/deli (see picture). The pool has karaoke on Friday nights. There is also a stocked fishing pond with dock though we didn't use it. 
  • The view: Okay, not all campsites have great views. But the lower sites do, and that's where we were. Awesome backdrop of the mountains while you sit by your campfire. 
  • The price: All the other campgrounds this close to the park charge $50+. Honeysuckle charges $35 a night.
  • The sites: Sites are typically long, wide, gravel, mostly level, and with plenty of space in between. Our site even had a brand new deck with solar LED lights! Every site has a metal fire pit and a plastic-topped picnic table. 

  The Cons: 

  •  This is a mix of long-term RV park and campground. The lower sites are mostly campers while the upper sites are a mix of campers and long-term lots. This isn't necessarily bad. Most of the long-term units are nice looking, but it does impact the camping feel a bit. And along the lead-in from the road to the sites there are a lot of campers in storage. Some of these don't look so nice. 

  • Dumpster: This is bear country so you can't leave your trash outside in cans. The only dumpster is all the way down the road to the office, and it is frequently full.

  • Reservations: The process of making reservations was easy enough. I was assigned a site in the confirmation email I received. But when we arrived I was given a different site. When I asked about it, they didn't have record of the first site I was given. When I drove by that site, there was an RV in it that looked like it was being stored there. We went to site 50, the one they gave us, and it was okay. The one just down the hill, Site 49, was a little shorter but it had a deck. We called the office and asked to switch. They agreed. It worked out, but it was a little frustrating. 

  • Amenities: Because it is more RV park than a campground, there wasn't a bathroom or laundry facility. 

  Overall, we were quite happy with the experience. We would stay here again and recommend it to others.

  Pigeon Forge/Gatlinburg KOA Campground

  Glamping in Pigeon Forge

  This is not exactly the camping in the woods without hookups atmosphere. This is more of a every want/need met glamping RV Resort. And it’s awesome!

  The RV sites are large and level, full hookup. There are gorgeous cabins that look more like tiny homes, and the atmosphere at this park is a great way to retreat. 100 ft max for RVs.

  Very kid friendly, pet friendly (Kamp K9), lots in the area to go do and see. Pools, hot tub, kitchen, firewood for sale, fishing access, snack bar, cable tv, and WiFi.

  The staff here is awesome, very helpful and knowledgeable. The park is very clean and well kept.

  Cellular service for TMobile was not very strong but AT&T provided plenty for streaming and working.

  Fort Wilderness RV Park

  Very poorly run

  Bathrooms hadn’t been cleaned in ages. Is definitely more of a long term RV park than a campground. Would avoid if possible

  Escapees Raccoon Valley RV Park

  True RV park right off 1-75

  Raccoon Valley RV park is literally just an RV park. The park was very clean and well maintained, and would be a nice place to park for a night as part of a longer trip. The RV park is just right off 1-75, just north of Knoxville, so it would be easy to hop on and off the interstate. The property is just a large gravel parking lot, with a few trees scattered throughout. Not really my kind of camping, but nearly all the spots were full.

  The park has a large laundry facility, and a dog park for people traveling/camping with pets. I did see some benches located in the perimeter of the property in shady spots for relaxing.

  I assume some of the guests are long term residents, but the sites were all so neat and clean, without built on structures and such that I’ve seen at most places. This RV park will be perfect for some!

  Anchor Down RV Resort

  Extremely Clean RV Resort

  This is one of the most cleanest RV resorts we have been to. It has amazing Mountain View’s, Full Hookups, close to attractions, nice pool, water slides at pool and lake. Food truck, rent golf carts. It’s a great place. Only drawback was no trees. Do a little research on sites, some are very tight and back up to another RV.

  Escapees Raccoon Valley RV Park

  Simple, affordable, accessible.

  This a an RV park, not a resort. It has everything you need: full hook ups, dog park, laundry. Clean, well kept and friendly. Sites are small and close, but work even for the larger rigs.

  A safe and reasonably priced place to spend a night while traveling, or a couple while exploring the area.

  Volunteer Park Family Campground

  Good place to stop over on a longer trip

  Volunteer RV park is right off I-75, on the outskirts of Knoxville. There’s not much around this area, but I think this would be a good place to stay a night or two on a longer trip. The campground is right off the road, but it is very large, and surprisingly wooded, so you could avoid road noise with an interior site, and it could be relaxing for a night. There are several long term residents, but there were a good number of open sites.

  The park has a playground with a wooden pirate ship for kids, and a really nice pool. It was crystal clear. The office has essentials, ice, and firewood. There is a laundry facility on the property too.

  I can’t say this would be an ideal camping spot for me personally, but for someone looking to stop somewhere off I-75 for a night or two, this place would be a great choice.

  Anchor Down RV Resort

  Amazing Glamping Resort

  This RV resort had everything we needed. Water, electric and sewage hookups. We had access to cable TV, although we don't have a TV in our camper. They also have extremely fast wifi which is hard to come by at campgrounds. Not to mention the AMAZING views of the lake and mountains. Our kids spent their days going back and forth between the pool with a waterslide and swimming in the lake. Their lake had a clean beach, waterslide and trampoline.

  Volunteer Park Family Campground

  Nice enough

  We stayed 2 nights here. There were several long term tenants. We had water, electric, sewer, and cable. Since we had sewer hook up I did not use their bathrooms. They had 2 bath houses. There was a pool and store on site. It’s easy enough to get to, it’s less a mile off 75. The sites were level, the park was clean, and the owners were nice.

  This place is awesome! It’s not just an RV resort, they have so much more! Glamping, cabins, airstreams…something for everyone!

  There are so many options for activities here to keep the whole family happy.

  The bathrooms are really nice. Every thing about this place is nice. Sites are level. The river is perfect to explore, watch or relax by.

  Rocky Meadows Farm

  Peaceful & Beautiful

  Ashley here with The Dyrt. I loved working with Ben to get his listing going on The Dyrt. This gorgeous land is perfect for tent or trailer camping with level ground. Ben has done an amazing job preparing this property for your stay. The bathroom/showers are hotel quality, so no worries about roughing it! Stay up past your bedtime so you can watch the fireflies! Give them a try and leave them some love!

  Sweetwater KOA

  Awesome Holiday Campground

  This is a very lively, well traveled RV Park and Campground. Sweetwater is a Holiday KOA meaning it’s has more amenities than their Journey parks (meant for traveling through).

  The park has quite a few large sites for big rigs that are about 80-100ft long. The maximum rig size is 60ft. Some sites are paved, most are gravel. There are two sites that are very long with amazing decks.

  The park offers full hook up RV Sites, Cabins, Tent sites. For amenities there is a bouncy blob (dry), small pond with fountain and memorial bench, large playground for the kids, volleyball, basketball, I’m not sure what the game is next to the blob. They have two dog parks, one for tiny pups and one for larger pups. There is a nice pavillion near the pond with a large fire pit. They have trash bins distributed throughout the park making trash disposal convenient.

  This park goes all out for the holidays. We are a month out from Halloween and they have done a spectacular job with decorating. They have lots of kids events. On Saturday there is a train that takes kids and adults on a ride around the park.

  Everyone who works here has been super friendly and helpful. They really seem to go above and beyond making sure everyone has a great stay.

  Cellular signals for AT&T and TMobile we’re both pretty good. We were able to stream and work. There were a couple of brief moments that getting signal was a challenge, but overall it was easy to work.

  Best start to a road trip

  Our first stop traveling cross country and it will be hard to beat! I know it’s called an RV resort but I didn’t think it would actually feel like a resort but it did. So beautiful and the dog exercise area was amazing. Should spend a few nights at least here.

  Volunteer Park Family Campground

  Taken Back at first, but....

  I was a little taken back when we first arrived at this campground because of how many people lived here long-term. There were clearly people who had been here for a very long time, even having pole barns put up over there rigs. I was slightly turned off by it because it felt like we were pulling in to a trailer park to camp (nothing wrong with trailer parks at all, just didn’t want to camp at one). We were only there for one night, but my views of the place quickly changed. Everyone here was so friendly and nice, and there is really good community here. The ground are decently taken care of aside from the long-term residents. The pool seems to be clean and the playground was fun for the little ones.

  This campground is easy access from I-75.

  Anchor Down RV Resort

  1 of a kind

  Just stayed overnight. They had a cancellation right in front of the lake so we took it. It’s a cross between a packed parking lot and a super upscale rv resort. It’s a great place for kids and families. Lots of water activities on a beautiful lake. Lots of amenities. Professionally run.

  Cherokee-Great Smokies KOA

  RV resort meets established tent camping

  Chosen by the in-laws for family reunion weekend. More built up/RV resort style than my preference, but a nice location nonetheless. On-site camp store and pool with splash zone. Oversize lawn games and several playgrounds for the kids. There are well stocked trout ponds on-site, and the surrounding rivers and streams are one of the largest managed private fisheries in the Eastern US. Tribal fishing license and you’re set to angle for rainbow, golden, and brown trout. Note restrictions on a defined local section for fly fishing/catch and release. One hour 20 minutes to Asheville & Biltmore Estate. Local day trips also include Mingo falls, Harrah’s casino, river tubing, Mountain Farm museum, Museum of the Cherokee Indian, Oconaluftee Indian Village, Blue Ridge Parkway, Mountains to Sea Trail, Bryson City model train museum & Great Smoky Mountains Railroad.

  As others have noted, there were some communication gaps between staff members regarding events and services. During our stay they were repaving sections of the access road with some interruption to water and power. My understanding is that renovations are now complete. Three stars based on these service interruptions

  Easily accessible RV pull through and back in sites with enough room to park your towed daily driver. 50/30A full hookups.

  Tent sites had sand or grass pads. Mix of primitive sites and those built up with 50A hookups and water. Bear boxes and fire pits.

  My brother’s family of four felt a bit cramped in the smaller cabins available on site, but there are larger options. Overall the buildings are in good repair, spread between the water and the camp store/pool area.

  Lotterdale Cove Campground

  Decent site

  No sewer hook-ups and alcohol is not allowed on the grounds. Supposed to have a 14 day maximum stay but walking around you can tell there are plenty of long-term parkers. The road in is rough with potholes and the transition from blacktop to cement at the gate is a huge jarring transition. Probably a 3 inch difference. Not exactly what I want to hit on the way to my site.

  Caney Creek RV Resort & Marina

  Pretty nice place

  Seems to be a lot of permanent or seasonal campers here. Spots are a little tight but concrete and pretty level. At our particular sight the sewer was toward the front of the sight but I had enough hose to get to it. Amenities are nice, there is a pool and pavilion, paved walking trails, shuffle board, basketball court, and boat docks and fishing pier. Our loop didn’t have cable but I believe the others do. The WiFi is spotty at best. Staff and long term campers seem friendly.
